Ingredients
  

  • 3 black tea bags
  • 1 quart hot water
  • ½ lemon or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 fat pinches sea salt

Instructions
 

  • In a 2 quart canning jar or other heat proof container, place tea bags, salt, lemon/juice, and honey.
  • Add hot tap water or hot water from kettle to the 1 quart mark.
  • Give the tea a little stir and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove the tea bags. Stir well to dissolve honey.
  • Fill the remainder of the jar with cold water and pop in the fridge until chilled through.

Notes

  • Steep and store right in one jar!
  • You don't need boiling water with the longer steep time.
  • Adding cool water at the end means you can enjoy immediately, or simply chill for later.
